    We've stayed at the La Veta Inn several times and love it. The rooms are very nice and comfortable…read moreand the courtyard is beautiful. The restaurant and bar downstairs are both excellent.

    I have two opposing viewpoints of our stay at the La Veta Inn on the first night of our roadtrip…read more First, the inn itself is quaint and charming. The courtyard suite was very comfortable. The courtyard was beautiful, with Italian lights strung above and a great big fireplace. A beautiful restaurant and cozy bar were very inviting. We were really excited to enjoy the hospitality described on the inn's website. On the other hand, we were greatly disappointed to arrive and realize that the entire place was shuttered due to the pandemic. Restaurant, bar, and courtyard closed. Our room key was in an envelope on the reception desk. Not a soul in sight. No coffee maker, silverware, plates, water glasses, or any other comfort of home. All there was was four walls and a roof, electricity, running water and a few towels in the bathroom. The website made NO MENTION AT ALL of the fact that these were all closed, so I feel like I was duped and cheated. Had I known, we would have booked a room in Alamosa and just spent the afternoon in the La Veta / Cuchara area, and looked forward to staying here another time. I would not even think of booking a room at this inn in the future without first confirming that the amenities described on their website are in fact being offered. In fact, I'm disappointed and pissed off enough that I probably won't consider staying here at all. To the owners of the inn - you should make it obvious on your website that the only thing you are providing during the pandemic is lodging. No services, no amenities, no greeting, no nuthin'. You are misleading and ripping off your guests with statements on your site that are simply not true in these unusual times. Be honest, for goodness sake. Don't bullshit your customers. 5 Stars for the building. 0 stars for the complete lack of service provided. -5 stars for not being forthright and informing the guests of this fact.

    The 1899 Inn is a beautiful historic building in the heart of La Veta. It was full of charm and…read moreantique furniture to look at. The rooms were clean and well maintained. The location was perfect for walking to a restaurant or the wine bar in town. The owner made fabulous breakfasts and was up early to make sure the coffee was ready. She was delightful and sweet. She did her best to make sure we were cared for, comfortable, and well fed to begin the day. Our private bathroom had a soaking tub rather than a shower. We had to use the general bathroom if we wanted a shower. (I was ok with that.) La Veta is a very small town at the base of the Spanish Peaks in southern Colorado. The townsfolk were very friendly and welcoming to visitors. I would go back in a heartbeat.

    This B&B created in a historic home/hospital is very charming. I especially like the sunroom which…read morewas skillfully added some years ago and now functions as the breakfast room. This place has many positive points, my favorite of which is the wonderful coffee and breakfast cooked and served by our host. I would be remiss though, if I didn't point out a couple of negatives as a "just so you know". There is NO air conditioning so on hot days, even with the windows open and fans running at night, it is warm. We didn't perish but it didn't inspire snuggling. The second issue for me was the lack of a stand-up shower. There is a nice claw foot tub with a 3' rubber thing that you plug one end into the spigot and a shower spray comes out the other end. However considering its 3' length I had to kneel in the tub to rinse my hair and do my bathing. No, I am not a bath person. For my $105 I wish they'd install a stand up shower fixture and an oblong ring at the top from which to hang a shower curtain. Our beds were very comfortable and the overall ambiance is pleasant. We enjoyed the teeny tiny town of La Veta; it is worth getting off the beaten path to visit.

    This place is really charming. My husband and I stayed here for one night on our way to Taos, and…read morewe are so glad we did! We stayed in the casa cactus cabin, and it was so cozy and cute. Everything was very clean, the beds had soft linens and the room was appointed well. Wall heaters worked great to keep us toasty all night. I would come back and stay here again in a heartbeat!

    Fraudsters. I stayed for a month and had a great deal of communication with the owners prior to my…read morestay. I was promised one cabin and when I arrived I was booked in another, much less desirable cabin. They also promised that the internet was reliable. There was no access point close enough to any of the cabins for wifi and they knew it. I couldn't find alternate lodging without internet, as the area in general has weak cell service. They added an access point after a week but I nearly lost my job. I bought an antenna to try to boost the weak wifi signal and had it stuck in the window blinds. My dog got caught in the cord and broke one slat. These are standard, white vinyl blinds that can be found anywhere for around $15, and a replacement slat is less than $1. My extended stay required a damage deposit. I told them about the broken blind immediately, and offered to pay for the time involved to replace the slat. They made no effort to fix it so I taped it together so it was functional during my stay. After I left, they charged me $108 to replace the entire blind, claiming they were custom faux wood blinds. I repeat, these were standard, vinyl blinds and they all come with replacement slats when you buy them. When I asked about the exorbitant charges, they stopped communicating with me. I didn't ask for compensation for not getting the cabin that I specifically requested and was promised. I didn't ask for compensation for not having the wifi that they promised. I didn't ask them to reimburse me for the antenna I had to buy. I planned on writing them a good review even after all of that, because they seemed like nice people and it's obvious that they struggle with keeping up the property. Then they have the nerve to try to scam me out of over $100 for a $1 slat in a blind that never would have broken in the first place if they hadn't lied about the internet. Note about the cabins: They have crammed three cabins at the back of the property where there is barely room for two. They are literally inches apart, and the Maverick is in the middle. The only views you will get if you book the Maverick are of the other cabins, it gets zero sun and offers no privacy whatsoever.
